NCEC’s Hazmat conferences are now well established as the 'must go' event for Hazmat Professionals to share experiences and gain knowledge with like-minded professionals working in the chemical incident industries.  Hazmat professionals need to keep up to date with hazardous materials response, chemical exposure monitoring, emergency planning, developments in legislation, future technologies, and learn lessons from past experiences. The Hazmat event is the best opportunity to gain a wider understanding of these issues, and more importantly, practical ways to address them.
